Ned Farr and Dreya Weber Win, Again!

If you're a fan of P90X then you'll be interested to know that filmmaker Ned Farr - writer, director, voice, and the man who shaped the sleek look and feel of P90X® has created a follow up to "The Gymnast".

It's another gripping drama entitled “A Marine Story” – and the film is already a hit with critics and audiences! (And me - I REALLY enjoyed this film!)

“A Marine Story” was written and directed by Ned and stars his wife, Dreya Weber ("Dreya Rolls" might ring a bell) as a recently discharged Marine. The intense film received equally intense reactions at the 28th Annual Outfest – The Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Film Festival, which concluded on July 18th.

The film won a trio of top trophies, including the Grand Jury Award for Best U.S. Feature Film, a Best Actress nod for Dreya and the coveted Audience Award for Outstanding Dramatic Feature Film. That’s quite a haul – and I’m sure it’s only the beginning, as their film is making the rounds on the film festival circuit.

I are proud of Ned and Dreya and the film’s early success. They have been part of our Beachbody family since the Power 90 days, and have been integral in the creation and ongoing success of P90X®. I only hope that as the film gains even more great momentum and acclaim.

You can follow the film on Facebook and support Ned and Dreya as they conquer Hollywood. Ned and Dreya - way to BRING IT! We’re proud of you and wish you continued success!
